the surreal life

so, paris hilton is facing 45 days in jail and phil spector is on trial for shooting someone in the face. is it any coincidence that erin is also significantly pregnant?

it has been surreal. the very first visit that we both went to was the early ultrasound. up until that point the consensus was that e-$ was about 6 weeks along (though she claims her intuition told her differently). i rolled into that brazil-like medical maze wearing a hawaiian shirt and thinking about lunch, anticipating the view of a cell bundle.

NOT SO.

head, shoulders, arms -- the whole bit. heartbeat.

there really isn't any appropriate preparation for this kind of view. in fact, it took me about 20 minutes to process the entire situation. we had gone from we'vegotasecretbutthereisnorealchange to seeing the child, and realizing that it was probably time to let people know. it gets funnier every day.

i'll soon be posting various photos as added documentation.
